thiago s Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, a história é fraca, o elenco é bom mas só os protagonistas ajudam a melhorar o filme, as cenas são mais ou menos, mas as cenas do casal dos protagonistas são boas, e até melhoram o filme, mas não conseguem fazer o filme ser bom, que poderia ter cenas melhores e relevantes. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/20/25 Full Review Efrem M Great cast! Good performances! And that's about it. The story was a compete mess. Very superficial and nothing profound about it. Desperate housewife has an affair with a desperate stay at home dad. And in between the sad story of a sex offender who lives in the neighborhood. The narrator throughout the movie was supposed to bring this terrible thing together? I don't think so. I skipped it for so many years but I decided to give it a try. Bad idea. Waste of time overall. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/25 Full Review Mason M Little Children is a brilliant tale and does justice to it's original novel. Given that this film was written by Tom Perrotta (who wrote the novel), it perfectly captures the spirit and what I liked about the book onto the screen. This also stands as an amazing stand alone film, with great performances and probably some of the most brilliant cinematography I've ever seen. The one letdown of the adaptation was the exclusion of Slutty Kay's storyline. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review Ku U Not at all worth the time. I felt like a wasted my time. Although the actors/actresses did a great job in the movie the purpose of the movie is not well clarified. Is it about children, is it about a devoured sex life of married couples or is it about sexual abuse? Jackie was great with the character but honestly that was cruel to even watch. One scene made my eyes bleed. Maybe the story outlines problems that could;ve been faced by couples with children I guess but I cant see the point clearly. The movie didnt start that great so I didnt have much expectations anyway. But thought it at least could end well. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/30/24 Full Review Rhianna J Kate Winslet is the greatest actress of my time. I honestly never hesitate to watch a film that she's involved with and I am never disappointed. This film sits in the shallows and never dives too deep but it works, it's modest and feels real. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/08/24 Full Review Jeff M The beauty of art is that it can mean many different things to many different people, regardless of or sometimes even in spite of the artist's intent. How you interpret this movie and what you get out of it will depend on a number of different criteria and how you relate, or don't relate, to the players involved. At its core, I think it's about two disparate but equally unsatisfied people who surprisingly find a connection. We've seen this in a thousand movies. The secret sauce here is the subplot involving the local sex offender, played by Jackie Earle Haley in an absolutely phenomenal performance. It's an amazingly complex role and our feelings about him eventually run the gamut. The storylines converge at the end, and one is forced to re-examine our thoughts and feelings about all of these characters. Winslet and Wilson are both great here, and it's interesting how each of them handle the effects of their affair differently. Connelley's is the only character (and/or performance) that feels a little off. With limited screen time, she isn't given the opportunity to flesh out a character beyond the suspicious jilted spouse. Kudos to Phyllis Somerville in a small but heartrending performance as Haley's mom. There are scenes here among the most disturbing and psychologically troubling I've seen in any movie. I get something new out of this every time I watch it, and it's an awesome movie to discuss with someone afterwards. It's likely you'll have very different opinions about what you saw.
